    Lawnmower engines

    I repair lawnmowers as my job and the chinese engines are very unreliable,cheap yes but you get what you pay for. If you can spend a little more money get something with a Briggs & Stratton or Honda engine on,it will be worth the money.

    JCB lawn mower

    Further to the last answer check that it is not overfilled with oil,and has it been tipped on its side at all which would mean oil in the air filter,if so just clean the filter in some petrol dry it and then put a small squirt of clean oil on the filter and squeeze it out.

    Honda don't make a cylinder mower,if you can afford it buy an Atco Balmoral 17" you can normally get the scarifier cassette for free so you get 2 machines for one.
